36 Weeks: It's Getting Cramped in Here

6/30/15

Here we are at 36 weeks!

Well I'm in the home stretch now! I had my last day of work about two weeks ago, and have been prepping for baby boy to make his appearance. Honestly it couldn't have come at a better time, I am getting so uncomfortably large that working any longer wouldn't have been a fun experience. I have been reclining the drivers seat back further so that I can drive without rib pain, it works sometimes. 

I am feeling better since the last post, thankfully. I did have one spell of sickness this month but I don't know if it was disease (stomach flu) related or if I had a crazy bout of morning sickness return. Luckily, it only lasted about two days. Other than that, I have had some general nausea but not like the first trimester.  I am also starting to get some swelling in my ankles if I've been on my feet too long, but nothing too bad. 

Garrett's sisters and mom threw me a baby shower on Saturday. It was so great to feel all the love and support from friends and family, especially those I hadn't seen in a while. We did it during my family reunion so more of my family could make it. 

So I measured at 40 cm at my prenatal appointment yesterday. Ouch. Baby boy, please don't stay in too long, just long enough. It's getting cramped in there.
